list. Where outstanding costs are rejected by COMPANY, these shall be

under this CONTRACT shall not constitute an admission by COMPANY as to the
performance by CONTRACTOR of its obligations hereunder and in no event shall
any such payments affect the obligations of CONTRACTOR.   Any payment withheld shall be without
prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to COMPANY.


 


25.16                     For charges

ARTICLE 4  - DAY RATE PAYMENTS


 


General


 


4.1                                 PAYMENTS
DURING THE UTILIZATION PERIOD PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE


 


A.             In the
event  the FPSO SYSTEM is located at the
OFFSHORE SITE and is capable of and ready to receive and process WELL FLUIDS
and offload PRODUCED OIL at the rates specified herein but COMPANY prevents CONTRACTOR
from completing INSTALLATION and/or commencing the PERFORMANCE TEST, an amount
equal to the Vessel Hire Rate plus verifiable, actual operating expenses will
be payable until such time as COMPANY is ready for CONTRACTOR to commence the
PERFORMANCE TEST .  Once COMPANY
notifies CONTRACTOR that it may proceed with the PERFORMANCE TEST, compensation
will be at the rate applicable based on TABLE 
II-A – Compensation Prior to Satisfactory Completion of the PERFORMANCE
TEST herein.


 


B.               In
the event the FPSO SYSTEM is not located at the OFFSHORE SITE, capable of and
ready to receive and process WELL FLUIDS and offload PRODUCED OIL at the rates
specified herein by October 1, 2004, no Vessel Hire Rate or Operating and
Maintenance Fee will be payable.  At such
time as the FPSO SYSTEM is INSTALLED and is capable of and ready to receive and
process WELL FLUIDS and offload PRODUCED OIL at the rates specified herein,
CONTRACTOR will notify COMPANY that it is ready to proceed with the PERFORMANCE
TEST, and compensation will commence at the rate applicable in TABLE II –
Compensation Prior to Satisfactory Completion of the PERFORMANCE TEST.


 


C.               In
the event the FPSO SYSTEM is not located at the OFFSHORE SITE, capable of and
ready to receive and process WELL FLUIDS and offload PRODUCED OIL by
October 1, 2004 due to a Force Majeure Event as defined in Article 21
of the CONTRACT, the Force Majeure Rates set forth in Table II – A.5 shall be
payable for the duration of the Force Majeure Event.


 


4.2                             PAYMENTS
DURING THE UTILIZATION PERIOD AFTER ISSUANCE OF THE PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE


 


Once the
PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE has been issued, compensation will be at the RATES
APPLICABLE AFTER ISSUANCE OF PERFORMANCE


 


5

















 


CERTIFICATE set forth
in TABLE II – A.2.  A reduced rate will
be applicable during any days when PRODUCED OIL production and, if applicable,
offloading, falls below 50,000 barrels, and such shortfall is not caused by
lack of production of WELL FLUIDS from the Wellhead Platform.


 


4.3                                 ELEMENTS
OF VESSEL HIRE RATE AND OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE FEES


 


Day Rate Costs
defined in Schedule II - A shall be deemed to include for all CONTRACTOR’s
direct and indirect costs for: labour, materials, consumables, equipment,
management, support, insurance, fees and all other items of whatever kind
required for the provision, operation and maintenance of the FPSO SYSTEM  during the UTILIZATION PERIOD with the
exception of items listed in EXHIBIT VII - “Company and Contractor Supplied
Materials and Equipment” specified as being supplied by COMPANY.


 


4.4                                 STOPPAGE
OF VESSEL HIRE RATE AND OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE FEE PAYMENTS


 


A.              In the following
events:


 


(i)                                     FPSO
SYSTEM is undergoing DOWNTIME beyond the 3% DOWNTIME allowance.  During the UTILIZATION PERIOD, CONTRACTOR
shall be allowed 3%  DOWNTIME.  DOWNTIME shall be defined as any time during
the Utilization Period when the FPSO SYSTEM is unable to receive or process oil
and produce and offload PRODUCED OIL and the cause is not a Force Majeure event
as defined in Article 21 of the Contract; and/or


(ii)                                  FPSO
VESSEL is disconnected from FPSO MOORING for any reason within the
environmental design criteria; and/or


(iii)                               Wreckage,
total loss and/or sinkage of any part of FPSO SYSTEM.


 


no Vessel Hire Rate
will be payable for the full duration of the event(s).  In case of event (iii), no Vessel Hire Rate
or Operating Maintenance Fee will be payable for the full duration of the
event.  Such duration shall be defined
as the period of time that the operation of any system on the Wellhead Platform
has been compromised from its intended/required performance, through no fault
of that system.


 


B.                                     In
the event that export tankers are unable to commence, continue with, or
complete offloading operations when environmental conditions are within the
offloading design criteria as stated in EXHIBIT IX and in the reasonable
opinion of the Mooring Master the FPSO SYSTEM fails to properly operate to an
extent that it:


 


(i)                                     Prevents
the export tanker from approaching to and/or mooring to the FPSO VESSEL; and/or


(ii)                                  Prevents
offloading hoses from being connected prior to commencement of offloading;
and/or


 


6

















 


(iii)                               Requires
offloading hoses to be disconnected prior to completion of offloading; and/or


(iv)                              Requires
tanker to un-moor from the FPSO VESSEL and stand-off; and/or


(v)                                 Requires
the export tanker to depart the OFFSHORE SITE without completion of loading the
planned offloading parcel.


 


no Vessel
Hire  Rate will be payable for the full
duration of the event(s). Such duration shall be defined as the cumulative
period(s) during which the offloading operation is on stand-by, starting from
the scheduled time for commencement of mooring the export tanker (as stated in
the preceding day’s daily report) and up the actual time of completion of
de-mooring the export tanker.  If such
an event occurs but full production of WELL FLUIDS from the Wellhead Platform
is uninterrupted, then the Vessel Hire Rate will be unaffected but CONTRACTOR
shall pay all demurrage and other verifiable direct costs caused by such
failure.  If such an event occurs and as
a result a cutback on WELL FLUIDS production levels   is caused or required, the Vessel Hire Rate will be adjusted in
an amount equal to the percentage of production reduction below full
production, and CONTRACTOR shall pay all demurrage and other verifiable direct
costs caused by such failure. 
CONTRACTOR’s maximum liability during any day under this
Article 4.4 shall be limited to an amount equal to the Vessel Hire Rate
applicable to such day.


 


C.                                     In
the event that the COMPANY OFFSHORE REPRESENTATIVE requires the FPSO SYSTEM to
stop receiving WELL FLUIDS and/or stop processing PRODUCED OIL due to, in his
reasonable opinion, unsafe working conditions of any EQUIPMENT or of the FPSO
SYSTEM, no day rate will be payable for the duration of the stoppage. Such
duration shall be defined as the period between the time that the COMPANY
OFFSHORE REPRESENTATIVE NOTIFIES the CONTRACTOR OIM to stop operation and the
time that the COMPANY OFFSHORE REPRESENTATIVE NOTIFIES the CONTRACTOR OIM that
he has released his stoppage instruction. Release of the COMPANY OFFSHORE
REPRESENTATIVE’s stoppage instruction will be given immediately once the unsafe
working condition is rectified to his reasonable satisfaction.


 


If
CONTRACTOR does not agree with the COMPANY OFFSHORE REPRESENTATIVE instruction
to stop processing PRODUCED OIL, CONTRACTOR must comply with COMPANY OFFSHORE
REPRESENTATIVE instruction.


 


The
invoice issued subsequent to the stoppage periods defined above shall be
calculated accordingly, allowing for each hour or part hour of stoppage arising
in the month addressed by that invoice.

activities that have minor deficiencies or omissions. In these cases, the
outstanding obligations will be listed on the certificate, detailing the
outstanding work required and defining the time scale within which this
outstanding work must be completed. If necessary, attachment sheets will be
used to define the outstanding work in sufficient detail. In these cases, the
attachment sheets will be explicitly headed with the title of the certificate

payment, COMPANY will sign off the certificate confirming that the payment is
authorized to be made. CONTRACTOR shall attach this signed certificate to the
relevant invoice as part of the required documentation, as defined in

EXHIBIT
IX - SCOPE OF WORK


 


Section 1
- Overview


 


The present FPSO Nanhai Kai Tuo, owned and operated by
COPC, is due for Class Renewal Survey in October 2004 and will be subject
to an extended repair period in this timeframe.  CONTRACTOR has agreed to provide a temporary replacement vessel,
the Dynamically Positioned (DP) FPSO Munin,
that meets all requirements set forth in Schedule IX – A “Required Specifications for DP FPSO Munin” and that shall be
delivered and installed operational before October 1st 2004 along with a
temporary loading system (FPSO MOORING). The period of hire shall be a minimum
of 160 days and may extend up to 190 days at COMPANY’s request.


 


The existing
Buoyant Turret Mooring (BTM) system in operation at the Xijiang OFFSHORE SITE
will be in continual use up to September 25, 2004, after which time it
will be made available to CONTRACTOR to begin WORK.  Any WORK performed by CONTRACTOR shall not impact production and
offloading operations at the Xijiang Terminal in any way prior to
September 25, 2004, or before FPSO Nanhai
Kai Tuo is disconnected from the existing BTM.


 


CONTRACTOR should
be aware of the presence of subsea pipelines from Platforms 24-3 and 30-2.  Mooring lines of any vessels used for
installation or demobilization work may not be laid over existing pipelines.


 


Compensation for WORK shall be in accordance with Exhibit II –
Compensation Schedule.  Refer to EXHIBIT
VII - “Company and Contractor Supplied Services, Materials and Equipment”.


 


Section 2
- Temporary Loading System for DP  FPSO Munin


 


CONTRACTOR will design, engineer, fabricate, construct, deliver and
install a Crude Oil Loading System that will mate with the existing
Buoyant Turret Mooring at Xijiang deliver crude oil to the temporary FPSO by
means of flexible hoses or risers. The Loading System when installed should not
impose any unacceptable stresses to the existing subsea facilities and should
have sufficient structural integrity to withstand environmental conditions that
prevail during the Winter Monsoon in the South China Sea Area.  The temporary outrigger structure is not to
impose any harm or damage to the existing BTM (including moorings and risers),
and have adequate structural integrity to remain safely in place during Winter
Monsoon conditions in the South China Sea. Any loads introduced by the
outrigger structure into the connector of the existing BTM buoy are to be
within the structural design values of the BTM buoy as provided by COMPANY.  The subsea structures and equipment should
be designed in such a way that they


 


 


1

















 


 


can be safely
delivered and installed to the OFFSHORE SITE without impacting production and
offloading operations at the Xijiang Terminal in any way prior to
September 25, 2004, or before FPSO Nanhai
Kai Tuo is disconnected from existing BTM.  Similarly, the subsea structures and equipment should be designed
in such a way that they can be safely removed without impacting production and
offloading operations at the Xijiang Terminal in any way after DEMOBILIZATION.


 


WORK related to
the temporary loading system should cover supply and connection of flexible
flow lines or hoses required to transfer WELL FLUIDS from the existing risers
to the FPSO Munin.  Any hoses or flexible flowlines used for the purpose
of tying in to the 24-3 and 30-2 risers should be sized to ensure there is no
restriction to the flow rate of crude oil delivered from each platform.


 


Section 3
- Condition of XJ Field 


 


The XJ BTM will be
delivered to CONTRACTOR in ‘no-load’ condition, floating level with Buoy top
surface at – 30MSW.  The buoyant pick-up
assembly consisting of Dyneema reconnection rope and Fybaline messenger rope
will be floating free on the sea surface. The Reconnection Wire and Guide Pin
will remain within the Buoy and should not be removed.


 


The actual
condition of the BTM structure will be determined by an ROV fly-by inspection
at time of delivery and condition agreed by COMPANY and CONTRACTOR
Representatives.  A similar condition
survey will be carried out upon redelivery of the Buoy at end on contract
period.


 


As mentioned
above, CONTRACTOR should be aware of the presence of subsea pipelines from
Platforms 24-3 and 30-2. Mooring lines of any vessels used for installation or
demobilization work may not be laid over existing pipelines.


 


Section 4
- FPSO Operations


 


The FPSO Munin will be required to receive, process
and store crude oil from the Xijiang Oilfield, which is located within the
boundaries of the China Economic Exclusion Zone.  The Xijiang Offshore Terminal is a Chinese Port and, as such, the
vessel must arrive on site compliant with all relevant Chinese Port, State and
vessel Flag State Regulations.  The Munin will be subject to Inward Port
Clearance by the China Customs and will operate under license issued by China
Offshore Oil Operation Safety Office.


 


The FPSO Munin shall be capable of operating on DP
with minimal production curtailment during the environmental conditions that
prevail at the Xijiang OFFSHORE SITE during the Winter Monsoon period.
Operational capability


 


2

















 


extends to crude
oil exports to shuttle tankers as well as the processing and storage of crude
oil from Xijiang Platforms.


 


CONTRACTOR is
required to include details of their Health Safety and Environment (HSE) Policy
which should be compatible and equivalent to the HSE policies presently in
place at Xijiang.


 


With the FPSO Munin in operation, it should be
anticipated that cargo transfers to shuttle tankers will take place every 5
days, weather permitting, with parcel sizes ranging from 420,000 to 600,000
bbls.  Cargo transfer rates should not
be less than 26,000 bbls/hour through 1 x 16” floating hose string.  There is no requirement to recover the hose
after each lifting and the hose may be left floating astern of the FPSO Munin.


 


If the Xijiang
terminal is closed due to threat of typhoon, the loading hose will be
disconnected from the FPSO SYSTEM and towed to shore. The FPSO export manifold
must be suitable for safe disconnection and reconnection of hose string and
have suitable lifting gear in vicinity.


 


The FPSO Munin should be fitted with a fiscal
Custody Transfer Meter system (turbine meter type) with prover and in-line
sampling facilities.


 


Section 5
- FPSO Manning and Crew Qualification


 


The FPSO VESSEL
shall be manned with suitably qualified and licensed personnel meeting the
requirements of Flag-State Regulations applicable to a vessel of its type and
size.


 


At no time shall the
number of marine personnel fall below the level specified in the Flag-State
Minimum Manning Certificate.


 


All marine and
engineer senior staff should be fluent in the English language, both spoken and
written.


 


CONTRACTOR is
encouraged to incorporate a high percentage of Chinese nationals in their
operating crews and limit the number of foreign expatriate employees to a
minimum. Attention is drawn to Clause 35 the Rules for the Administration of
Employment of Foreigners in China issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
1996, which establishes quotas for foreigners working in marine capacities in
China.


 


COMPANY reserves
the right to have its own COMPANY REPRESENTATIVE and senior Process and
Production staff on board the FPSO VESSEL at all times, to oversee the overall
operation of the facility and ensure compliance with COMPANY requirements and
policies.


 


3

















 


Should COMPANY
require CONTRACTOR’s crew to attend additional training courses in order to
satisfy COMPANY policies  (at  COMPANY’s cost), such crew shall be released
for training subject to there being no impact on FPSO SYSTEM  operations or minimum manning levels.


 


Section 6
- Limitation of Work Scope


 


This Scope of Work
covers only the operation of the FPSO SYSTEM including INSTALLATION and
DEMOBILIZATION. It does not require the CONTRACTOR to provide any ancillary
services which may form part of offshore oil terminal operations. Coordination
of tanker movements, mooring and general terminal support operations will be
carried out by  COMPANY and/or its
sub-contractors and does not form part of the Scope of Work.
